    APIMS gives leaders a clear, interactive dashboard view of information and AI use across the organisation.

    It documents each Head of Department’s accountability to the Board for the information and technology used in their area, aligning with their existing operational and financial accountability.

    Risks and mitigating actions are assigned, documented and tracked through the Information Risk Register, while risk ratings and control status are displayed in the dashboard.

    Our clients:

    Govern information and AI with confidence

      Accountability framework

      Turns Board accountability into clear roles: Heads of Department are accountable for the information and technology used in their areas, while Process Coordinators are responsible for day-to-day actions.

      Risk register

      APIMS automatically identifies and prioritises risks, populating the Information Risk Register with suggested risk ratings and appropriate actions that are automatically tracked to completion with live status displayed.

      DPIAs

      APIMS flags when a Data Protection Impact Assessment is required - and helps you complete it, identifies key risks and suggests suitable mitigation, saving your team time and reducing risk exposure.

      Automated RoPA

      Is your Record of Processing Activities a spreadsheet? How useful is it? APIMS creates one automatically, then uses it to identify risks & regulatory requirements. Now that's a ROPA worth having!

      Data Subject Requests

      Log DSRs, check key requirements and track them to completion with assigned responsibilities, automated emails and chasers - so your responses are always sent out on time.

      Incident Log

      Record and manage incidents and breach notifications.

      And why not add training to reduce your risk of common breaches?

      What customers are saying

        “APIMS really came into its own when we had a consensual ICO audit. We were able to show the ICO our Accountability Framework, our ROPAs and our Risk Register with up-to-date information on risk ratings and control status displayed on the dashboard. The auditors said they were ‘really impressed’.”

        John Wild
        Former MD of CPOMS Systems

          "What do I think of APIMS? Brilliant! We started using it last year. Privacy and GDPR compliance had seemed daunting, but APIMS has made it manageable. Setting up was quick and simple, with responsibilities spread across our management team. Now, our team is fully aware of data processing risks and owns the actions to mitigate them, while our risk committee monitors our risks in the Risk Register, and can view current current status on the live APIMS dashboard, giving us confidence for the future."

            "Really clear and easy to use – and as Customer Services Director of a software company, that’s what I always strive for."
